Description: Description Puccini Madama Butterfly Barbirolli 2 SACD Hybrid TOWER RECORDS JAPANProduct introduction One of Barbirolli's most famous performances, which depicts the work with overwhelming sympathy! One of the decisive boards of "Madame Butterfly" by the former EMI label with accurate singers including Scott in the heyday. World's first SACD!Limited reprint of 800 sets with serial numberThe second in the opera series. The latest reproduction of "Madame Butterfly" recorded in 1966, which is famous as one of the most famous performances in Barbirolli's few opera recordings. The Barbirolli section, which always appeals to the audience with overwhelming sympathy for the work, is also remarkable in this work, and the high insight of the former EMI label who accurately cast singers such as Scott and Bergonzi in the heyday of the Coloratura era. It is one of the decisive boards of "Madame Butterfly". For this reprint, the SACD layer and CD layer are mastered separately using a new master digitized at 192kHz / 24bit from the original master in the home country. It is a permanent storage board. Limited edition of 800 sets with serial number. Comes with a booklet of over 60 pages including new commentary and lyrics translation.Barbirolli is one of the conductors who has released many sound sources from other companies in this reprint project, as it is the 120th anniversary of his birth (next year is 50 years after his death). In Japan, it is especially popular with Marler and Brahms, and live sound sources are still being excavated. However, among the many recordings left, the impression about opera was weak, and the number of opera recordings actually recorded in the session was small, and in the CD era, there were few opportunities to reprint including "Otello". Even in such a situation, this "Madame Butterfly" is famous as one of the best performances including many competing discs. Barbirolli himself died suddenly just before his first visit to Japan at the 1970 World's Fair, and after the rehearsal of the song he visited in Japan, so he has a special feeling for this work, even though it is a point of contact in the work. I can't help it. As Barbirolli's style, the performance is emotional, and the feeling of treating the work as a human drama is even more remarkable in this work. The detailed handling of the melody and the beauty of the melody line, which is fully chewed, can be felt everywhere, which is also a feature of this sound source. In addition, the intention has fully penetrated into the singers such as Scott and Bergonzi in the heyday of the Coloratura era, and the high degree of perfection as an album is also highly evaluated. With this latest reprint, you can hear more detailed nuances than before.In this series, the SACD layer aims for a high resolution and rich sound field with a long high range and soft nuance, and the CD layer aims for a realistic tone that is extruded with a cohesive and solid sound. The potential of the CD itself is high, and you can enjoy it as a SACD hybrid disc where you can enjoy the goodness of both.Work informationConductor: John BarbirolliEnsemble: Rome Opera OrchestraPerformers: Renata Scotto, Carlo BergonziComposer: Giacomo PucciniContentsNumber of components | 2 sheetsTrack ListingGiacomo Puccini: Opera "Madame Butterfly" (2 acts) All songs
